Subject[PATCH] mm/kfence: fix a potential NULL pointer dereference
Date
From: xu xin <xu.xin16@zte.com.cn>

In __kfence_free(), the returned 'meta' from addr_to_metadata()
might be NULL just as the implementation of addr_to_metadata()
shows.

Let's add a check of the pointer 'meta' to avoid NULL pointer
dereference. The patch brings three changes:

1. Add checks in both kfence_free() and __kfence_free();
2. kfence_free is not inline function any longer and new inline
function '__try_free_kfence_meta' is introduced.
3. The check of is_kfence_address() is not required for
__kfence_free() now because __kfence_free has done the check in
addr_to_metadata();
